[DML] Fuel Injector Pressure vs Fuel Consumption

[doctorDHD@xxxxxxx]

In my continuing efforts to measure fuel consumption for the "D" I  installed 
an electronic pressure sensor connected to one of the injectors.   I'm not 
sure I am getting the information I need.  I have based my idea on  some 
assumptions.
 
1) I thought that the pressure in the injector line would be a way to  
estimate fuel consumption based on the idea that the more the pressure in the  line 
the more fuel would be sprayed out.
 
2) Each injector should have the same pressure so I should have to monitor  
only one.  (But if that is true why didn't they just have one chamber or  
perhaps 2 fuel rails, with all 6 injectors essentially connected to the same  
point?)
 
Any comments or ideas?
